    Put in for both nights. I feel like demand for this show could be higher than expected due to it being on a weekend and the closest show to the Canadian border. Good luck everyone!
    And it's only about a 5-hour drive from Philly/Philly area.
    NYC isn't too far as well
    Also less than 6 hours from Toronto.

    DC is prob the closest large metro area... they have not had a show in DC proper since 2008...
    I was at that show, it was awesome!
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......
  • bigbiggzybigbiggzy Posts: 768
    It was.

    With that said - it continues to baffle me why they don’t hit the DC /NoVA area. I think the last time they played DC was in 2010 for BS’er (Jiffy Lube in Bristow, VA).

    Booked at the Hilton Double Tree last Friday and got Friday night, check out Monday for a total of $959 Canadian 
    looked at same hotel this morning and it’s $1249 a night. Total for the same time is $4300 Canadian. They couldn’t have jumped that much could they. Who would pay 4 grand for 3 night stay. Outrageous!!!

    Well it's a lot less with EZ Pass it looks like, so that's good.

    The tolls are about $8 from Central Indiana if you have an EZ/IPASS. You can avoid the tolls if you take I-70.

    *DMV, not DC. Last show in DC was 2008 at the then Verizon Center. 
    I clarify just because JLL is just as far from DC as Baltimore.

    Pittsburgh to Philly is the USA's most expensive stretch of toll road.

    I used Amtrak for the most recent Philly shows coming from Pitt. I won’t make that drive again. Amtrak all the way..

    I've also seen that there are some cheap flights between the two cities. I know that PIT being so far from the city really cuts into those costs savings though.
